Overwatch Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Matienk0 Matienko (@Matienk0) reported

    I would love to revive games that ACTUALLY DIED like ***** Bomb or Battleborn. I would give them another chance since TF2/Overwatch/Paladins have their problems but I would be ready for a 4th lol

  • pepeSh_ pepeSh (@pepeSh_) reported

    @Astaledia Had ping problems since Overwatch 1 back in 2016 and in Overwatch only. It didn't help that I had rather slow internet at that time xD

  • Pebbas420 Pebba (@Pebbas420) reported

    if paladins could fix how busted their game is it could be a legitimate competitor against overwatch bc their characters are way more unique but the actual game crashes all the ****** time and is run by like 3 hamsters running really fast or something

  • doom2blue malcolm • chandlers silly goose (@doom2blue) reported

    kinda wish someone had gotten an athena skin in the overwatch event :/ that title and voice line is something i wouldn’t have a problem grinding

  • RiskiksValorant Riskiks (@RiskiksValorant) reported

    When i open up the game, it says that I'm VAC banned, even tho it clearly says it's an overwatch ban, so heres the problem. Overwatch in csgo is ******* dogshit, my sens was really high, a millimeter irl would translate to 720 degrees ingame, and therefore it LOOKED like cheats.

  • 3xhumed Exhumed (@3xhumed) reported

    @OverwatchCaval Seems like the game developers like the number "300" a lot. Very creative, I must say. If that's the only thing they can think of for the next events, oh man. Overwatch 2, the pinnacle of game development. "Live-Service-Game"

  • biopheonix Ncvine (@biopheonix) reported

    Anyone else getting server error message when trying to log in on #overwatch 2 on ps5

  • Destructa_OW Destructa (@Destructa_OW) reported

    Overwatch has become extremely predatory design wise. Gameplay is a separate issue and personally I don’t think it’s horrible. But the way they’ve done their new cosmetic system/battle pass system is extremely ****** up anti player.

  • CryptidXiao Phoenix 🏳️‍🌈 (@CryptidXiao) reported

    Played Overwatch for two hours, came back, and **** is still broken. C’mon man.

  • SleekyB0i S-B0rgar (@SleekyB0i) reported

    @SamitoFPS Well that’s because Apex AA is broken. That’s not the case for almost any other game aside from COD. Implementation is important and most games do AA fairly well, Overwatch included. Need I bring up the fact that playing hanzo on console was too hard for you?

  • DeathcomGaming Deathcom Gaming (@DeathcomGaming) reported

    @PlayOverwatch My voice chat is t working in any games. How can I fix that? It has worked since Overwatch 1 and now here it shut me down not too long ago

  • TattyBeanPie Tatty Bean Pie ☮️💜 (@TattyBeanPie) reported

    @ArchieCarnall @ChibiAcer @Phyerx That was posted in 2020 and depicts top 500 experience. The problem with 2020 was imbalanced metas. The only time there was no meta in Overwatch was season 21 2020 because of hero pools. Which everybody decided was a horrible idea. Bad year for the game overall.

  • TuskenMommy tusken ellie, esq. (@TuskenMommy) reported

    is it just me or does gold overwatch matchmaking have a damage issue?

  • IantosWolf Iantos (@IantosWolf) reported

    Casual games in Free to Play Overwatch is basically guessing which of the super incompetent players in the match will disconnect first.

  • BeezExclusivez IG:BeezExclusivez 🐝 (@BeezExclusivez) reported

    @KapzLocked I keep trying to force the issue and play this trash but I need to just play overwatch full time and just uninstall mw2 all together

  • comet_melting CHI XU @ home ;__; (@comet_melting) reported

    @Zaaruchan zaaru, the problem with you describing things like this is that i assume they actually added reinhardt's shield from the game and not something that functions akin to it! ! ! ! they might as well put in overwatch characters for real at this point this is the fortnite struggle

  • nicoslayerr victor (@nicoslayerr) reported

    @PlayOverwatch your servers keep disconnecting people on console. overwatch is the only game im having this issue with. discuss.

  • V1PAOW V1PA (@V1PAOW) reported

    Now while I've never been vocal about my problems with overwatch, I will say one thing. Push genuinely ******* sucks as a gamemode, the maps are laid out in a way that cause you to walk a ******* marathon to get to the robot, not just that, but if you're losing by a-

  • perspectvortex Total Perspective Vortex Investments (@perspectvortex) reported

    @AlexNoonan6 I just wanted to see if anyone else had the same issue i was having in Overwatch 2. BIG mistake

  • SleekyB0i S-B0rgar (@SleekyB0i) reported

    @hh_varuna @SamitoFPS While I don’t think AA is broken, I will say that most of the people I’ve met tend to play without it on overwatch so they don’t have to risk it’s inconsistency. It takes more time for practice, but people would preform better overall without it if they really bothered trying.

  • Deventh Deventh (@Deventh) reported

    @Javy_F20 @b0gur The character itself is not Average though... that is skill issue. The potential of the character to solo carry a game in Overwatch is insane.

  • SeraphicaIy Christian Gebhardt (@SeraphicaIy) reported

    When did they wanna fix the Overwatch profile bug? I've been sitting on wrong statistics forever now.

  • EastyBug easty ♡ (@EastyBug) reported

    My biggest issue with the overwatch hog rework conversation is that many other characters have one shot combos (JQ, rat, widow, etc) and although a good hog is annoying, there are quite a few counters and the possibility of them missing the combo (happens a lot)

  • myseglis Myseglis (@myseglis) reported

    One thing that makes Overwatch 2 great is the removal of 2CP, this gamemode ******* sucked in ranked as well as in QP. Assault was just a flawed gamemode with no way to fix it. Yeah the maps were nice and fun to play on but we all ended up hating them because of the gamemode.

  • ArtworkLoco LocoLocalArtwork (@ArtworkLoco) reported

    Overwatch 2's biggest problem by far is the balancing. the skin prices are greedy and need to be looked at but like, they're skins dude.

  • goseulified Casey (@goseulified) reported

    Overwatch players actually so annoying because THEY complained about Sombra when she wasn’t as serious of a problem as they said and got her hard nerfed and now they’re complaining about Hog being OP. THIS IS WHAT YOU ASKED FOR.

  • SongofSeoul 𝓗𝓪𝓷𝓪 𝓢𝓸𝓷𝓰 (@SongofSeoul) reported

    @Talonsmedic "Oh there a problem alright..." Hana said before cuffing his hands behind him and pushing his head gently so he couldnt see her. "You see I hear that you have been helping those Overwatch guys... and surely you know of the PETRA Act? It's all illegal."

    not playing support anymore on overwatch literally fixed all my problems i’ve never been happier

  • TheeBiiigGuy Chris Gray (@TheeBiiigGuy) reported

    @PlayOverwatch you really need to fix your game I know I’m a nobody, compared to streamers and “pros” had 7 games of my life there just to de rank much preferred overwatch 1 to be honest,your also ripping people of with the skin prices especially old overwatch skins £16 okay then
